Romance was never Willy’s strong point. It was obvious, the way his dates left him he because he was pursuing a chocolate business and being illiterate.

But you were different. You didn’t judge him, and he knew you loved him for who you were.

But that was the worst part, Willy didn’t want you to love him that way, not because he didn’t love you back, but because he didn’t want to hurt you when he gets busy.

So he rejected your confession. He thought he was doing the right thing.
